Vincente Sanchez had two goals for Colorado (1-1-1), both on penalty kicks.

“We’ll go through what happened because it was like we shut off and they took advantage as good teams do to you,” Rapids defender Marvell Wynne said. “That’s not going to become a return thing for us. I don’t think we are going to be scored upon three or more times throughout the year.”

Zusi and Zizzo set up Feilhaber’s goal with pinpoint passes.

Sanchez had barely scored his second goal in the 78th minute when Zusi was flying through midfield. He passed to Zizzo, who sent a header to Feilhaber. He then got the ball past Berrner on his second try.

Zusi put Sporting in front in the 50th minute, but Sanchez scored his third goal in the 60th minute.

Sporting Kansas City defender Ike Opara injured his right leg in the second half and was helped off the field.
